I love hip hop and Synthwave - found some of my favourite acapellas and Synthwave instrumentals and this is the result.

Class Actress - Keep You

One of my all-time favourite 80s tracks - the beautiful Shannon.
This is actually the first time I heard the vocals properly, the original track is a little clumsily engineered. Crockett does a much better job, it's like these tracks were made for each other.
Get the album here:
https://crockett.bandcamp.com/album/city-of-ghosts

Created and mastered in Audacity.

Let the City of Ghosts Play ('Let the Music Play' bitfunk edit) [Shannon vs Crockett]

There's this amazing album called 'Retrowave Instrumentals' by Bit Funk & Jason Gaffner. Oe of their tracks seems to work well with the classic 'The Next Episode' - what do you think?

Sorry about the hideous cover, neither of the originals are that inspiring!

Created and mastered in Audacity.

The Next Chase ('The Next Episode' synth funk) [Snoop Dogg & Dr Dre vs Bit Funk & Jason Gaffner]

The original is great but I had he acapella lying around in my Hydeout (Nujabes) collection and tried it with this funky synthwave track and it makes it sound quite kinetic. Added a flange to the chorus.
Buy the music used in the instrumental here:

Created and mastered in Audacity.

Walking On The Mystery ('Ain't No Mystery' synth hop version) [Nujabes & L-Universe vs AM 1984]

One of the greatest hip hop tracks of all time from DJ Vadim's U.S.S.R. album - his great track is replaced by the equally hard-hitting 'Beasts' by ALEX & Tokyo Rose from their AKUMA II album which you can get here:

Created and mastered with Audacity.

Terrorist Beasts (darkwave synth-hop mix) [DJ Vadim & Moshun Man vs ALEX & Tokyo Rose]

DMX's massive hip hop anthem given a new flavour by Niky Nine's banging synthwave track 'Exhausted Divinity' from the album Suncore - get here:

Created and mastered in Audacity.

X Gon' Give Exhausted Divinity to Ya ('X Gon' Give It to Ya' darkwave version) [DMX vs Niky Nine]

I found this track added a dimension of melancholy to what I always assumed to be a nostalgic track. Both tracks are named for New York City; thanks to Marvel '83 for the lovely track 'NYC Sunrise' which can be found on the album Genesis

A Letter to a NYC Sunrise ('An Open Letter to NYC' nostalgic chillwave) [Beastie Boys vs Marvel '83]
